Chris Walshaw has just released the March 2010 edition of the tune search on his abc site here this is really slick and returns all the tunes in a list with the start of the musical dots shown and the ability to play each tune from the list. I found it very quick and easy to use but a warning you can spend hours just comparing versions of tune, I was initially looking for Constant Billy, hours of fun.

Terrifying!   I tried to test it with 'egb egb' start notes of our March ToTM. OK that's a common motif in Em - 859 different tunes  Huh?  And 'egbegb' didn't work. If you're listening Chris - fantastic work as ever. If you could get Regular Expression parsing or similar in there it would be to the good.
